We are geeked to premiere this raucous single from the Naked Giants today called “Pyramids.” The Seattle trio really has a knack for bringing different rock genres from the past to the forefront, but with a new twist that makes it exciting and fresh. “Pyramids” starts with a hammering bass and guitar line then goes full-force with frenzied lyrics and a hard hitting back beat that combines garage and punk, for a real aural treat. Naked Giants will be going on their first tour next week and with songs like this, we can’t wait until they hit the east coast.

 

“An important part of this song can actually only be seen live: the original Gianni Aiello (bassist) pyramids dance. You see, between the robotic pulse of the rhythm and the monotony of the single note being played ad nauseam, Gianni found himself itching for something more human to do while playing. And thus he began shaking his hips and tapping his foot with his back turned to the audience like a regular Jim Morrison without the leather pants. And, to build the suspense, he’ll jump to face a different direction for each line of the verse, finally facing the audience full on when the chorus kicks in. A real sight to be seen.” – Naked Giants
